Looks like I will be getting 2 of the FOX games Saturday and possibly 3 depending on what the west Coast FOX DNS feed decides to air. I will be disappointed if I dont get to see the Rangers vs Astros game but doubt west coast will air that game over Red Sox vs Phillies.

Here is one of those things that fascinates me. The baseball quiz show, Baseball IQ, is currently blacked out on MLBNetwork. A game show is blacked out! I was tuning in to check on the Mets/Padres game anyway because the scoreguide said it was on MLB (it is actually on the alternate channel, though not listed in the guide), so I'm not upset about missing the game show, but that is a new height of strangeness in blackouts.

What now FOX's exclusive window on baseball on Saturdays starts at 7 PM, instead of ending at that time?

FOX has revamped it's Saturday lineup,

Fox will air live sports on 28 of the next 32 Saturday nights, kicking off with two NASCAR events, followed by a live UFC card on May 5. After another NASCAR race, the network will televise 8 MLB games on consecutive Saturdays through July 7, leading into the All-Star Game on Fox on July 10. Another UFC night will air Aug. 4, and after a four-week hiatus, Pac-12 football comes on board for 12 Saturday night telecasts, interrupted one Saturday night, Oct. 27, for a World Series game. Fox will also televise the Big Ten Championship on December 1 and another UFC event on Dec. 8.
